Paramount Theater - Boston

Thankfully, in this era of struggling theaters, one long dormant theater has achieved a remarkable resurrection. Boston’s Paramount Theater re-opened this month as a performing arts center for theatre, dance, and music performances.

Built in 1932, the original Art Deco theater on Washington Street was strictly for motion pictures, fell on hard times decades ago and was closed in 1976.

Have a look here for an article detailing the renovation and reopening of this treasure.
